Reconciliation is an ongoing responsibility that requires listening, learning, accountability, and action. As a research network, we are committed to advancing reconciliation through right actions and building a more equitable and culturally safe health research system.

Today, we pause to remember the grievous harms of the Residential School System and honour the Indigenous children who were taken from their families and communities. We honour those who suffered, those who never returned home, and the families and communities forever impacted.

The world’s largest and longest clinical trial in critical care, SuDDICU found a significant reduction in hospital-acquired infection in critically ill patients on mechanical ventilation, when given antibiotics preventatively before a new infection can develop.

In the SuDDICU trial of patients undergoing mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit, selective decontamination of the digestive tract did not result in a lower incidence of in-hospital death than standard care alone. Full trial results: nej.md/4nhyeN8 #LIVES2025 | @esicm.bsky.social
